That would be EOVERFLOW. Presumably we need to be using statvfs64 (with a configure check to see whether it exists, of course), but I also think it makes sense to change that error to a warning and try to continue. Checking the free space is just a nicety for the user; if we don't know how much is free we might as well just plow ahead and see if we run out.
